Elway

8x8 oil on board
NFS

Elway is a very well loved golden doodle with lots of personality who was great fun to paint!  The painting is going to her (yes, her) newly engaged parents.

To all my readers, I want wish you all a wonderful new year filled with laughter, love and happiness. I also want to thank you for stopping by for a look at my work and particularly for your comments and words of encouragement.  It is your continued support that helps me in my pursuit of growth as an artist. 

With all that I am already seeing out there on your blogs, it's looking to be a great year for artists...happy painting!
